Today I was home sick and unable to attend the live stream of Apple’s iPad2 event.
So I Followed @antderosa @bxchen @parislemon @gartenberg @scobleizer @shawnking @daringfireball live coverage of the event and & @glennf‘s #FakeAppleEvent via my EventShortList using Twitter.
Here are a few highlights, but you can review their full tweet stream about the event at the link above, starting about 11:45 on March 2, 2011.
RT @Gartenberg 1.3lbs, Black and White. ATT and VZW all on day one. Good lineup
RT @Scobleizer “[HDMI] works with all apps,” Jobs says. iPad 2. No setup or config and you can charge while you are using HDMI.
Understatement! RT @ShawnKing Dan Costa, Exec Editor of PCMag on CNBC: “What we’re seeing here is a polishing of the product line…”
GoodToHear RT @Scobleizer I’ve been watching Jobs for the entire keynote. … He’s been standing the entire time, looks healthier than me.
RT @Scobleizer “Everybody can play,” with “smart instruments” in GarageBand. This so blows away anything on Android or HP or RIM. BOOOOM!
RT @AntDeRosa iPad 2 specs are now up on http://apple.com/ipad
Amazing! RT @Scobleizer iPad 2 video is up on http://apple.com/ipad so you can see it for yourself. See the Smart Cover one. Cute.
RT @ShawnKing After today’s announcements, I can’t imagine a scenario where there will be an “iPad 3” released later this year. Makes no sense.
RT @ShawnKing There’s no competition for the iPad *1* … let alone for this iPad … why release another?
RT @Scobleizer “They (competitors) are talking about speeds and feeds. Just like they did with PCs.” That is not the right approach to this, Jobs says.

RT @bxchen Our hands-on impressions of the iPad 2 with pics by @jonsnyder
RT @ShawnKing New YML Poll: “Will you buy a new iPad 2 before the end of 2011?”
RT @Lessien The changes may appear subtle (on the surface) but the bar’s getting raised today, folks.
